Folks,
No one responded to this, so I made a WAG and it worked!
=> I selected all the topics with a ctrl-A, opened the
properties dialog and changed the template setting to none.
=> I checked a random sample of topics to ensure that
none displayed the header or footer.
=>Finally, I selected all the topics again, opened the
dialog and chose the correct template.
A random sample of topics proved that the template 'took' and
all topics properly displayed the header and footer.
